    For Grumman (Bethpage), all aircraft are Historic: F4F, F6F, TBF, F7F, F8F, AF, S2F, OV-1, HU-16, E-1, C-1, E-2, C-2
    Add Grumman (Calverton), all aircraft are Historic: F9F, F11F, A-6, EA-6, F-14
    I'm not sure which plant the Gulfstream 1 and Gulfstream 2 were built in. Note that the military jets were all built in Calverton.

    Oh, and there's Northrop Grumman (St. Augustine), Current is E-2.
    For Northrop Grumman (Melbourne), Future is B-21.

    For Lockheed Martin (Marietta) add Historic: B=47, JetStar, C-141, P-3.

    Thanks everyone for all the updates! I think I got them all in there. Still need to organize it a bit better.

    Was final assembly in West Palm Beach or Coatsville?

    Although alot of the engineering is being done in Melbourne, I was under the impression they were doing all the B-21 final assembly in Palmdale.

    Affirmative, in the same plant as the B-2. They were also building F/A-18 parts there. Got a tour there when working on another program, including a B-2 cockpit visit.
